posted 1st Jan
Im taking off full time to go part time and exclusively online. I signed up for two pretty easy classes. Humanities & sociology.

I was due in the middle of fall semester but it worked out that I had him the first day of thanksgiving break, I had that week to recover then I went back and finished the semester with a 3.7 GPA it's difficult but not impossible! (I even breastfeed too)

I had my son a little over a week before classes started. It was actually a lot easier than I thought it would be. I would do as much as you can ahead of time leading up until you deliver because you will be tired but the baby will sleep plenty for you to have time to get stuff done. With most of my online classes an hour or two a week was the most I needed to complete weekly work and there was plenty enough time to complete all the work.

I had my son mid-semester and only took a week off my on campus class because he was in the NICU. I had two online classes that semester, too. I was only gone from him about two hours twice a week, and left him with his daddy with bottles of breast milk. I had him on a Saturday, got out of the hospital Monday, and would have been physically fine to make it to class Tuesday as scheduled...except I was in the hospital with my son.
I got straight As that semester. School was so much easier when he was an infant, compared to toddler and preschool age. Lol

I wish I had known how easy school and a newborn would be compared to later on. I definitely would have taken more classes lol.

I'm due the 2nd week of Spring semester my campus is 20 minutes away from my house I'm hoping leaving him with Daddy will be ok. I'm glad someone posted about this cause I've been stressing on how it would work out. Daddy no no baby experienceits his first my 3rd. Hopefully it will work out.

I was going full time or almost full time most semesters. Now I go half at most. Lol But I work, too, and my son goes to work with me. He is with me 24/7 unless I am actually in class, which doesn't happen every semester. Getting homework done now as opposed to back then is a whole different story. I used to read my textbooks to him because I was studying history and he just liked the sound of my voice. Lol
Now...I do it after he goes to bed and am up half the night, then get up with him in the morning.

My son is the first for both of us...I left a couple of bottles of breast milk and wasn't gone more than two hours for class...it went fine. I usually fed him before I left and was home by the next feeding.
